Leading virtual teams

Managers who remotely lead their teams in different locations face particular challenges. Virtual teamwork calls for significantly more communication than in traditional teams – and competent use of modern media. In addition, communication needs to suit the various cultures and styles of communication.

The training is aimed at management staff who want to improve their ability to work with virtual, international teams. Learn how to set clear rules for communication in order to effectively guide and coordinate your teams and confidently use different forms of media to lead them.
